Ask HN: How do you all feel about using recruiters?

1 pointsby grassclipover 8 years ago
At least in terms of non-SV locations, it's kind of hard to find more than a few companies looking for rails devs / data engineers. And I'm sure there are companies working on interesting problems, but the thought of those jobs needing a recruiter to fill them kind of turns me off to them. And also the pushiness and lack of domain knowledge is a little annoying to deal with. Any thoughts on the issue?

I like them. I&#x27;m always happy to give a 5-10 min chat to see what the opportunity is.<p>Sure some are time wasters but overall I&#x27;m pleased with the few I&#x27;ve worked with in the past.
